The year-long mentorship programme gives budding stylists the chance to supercharge their skill set.

Esteemed industry Judges Darren Ambrose, Errol Douglas MBE and Robert Eaton watched on as a total of 20 Finalists were invited to show off their cutting and colouring skills in two heats. The day’s challenge was to recreate the photographic looks the finalists had submitted as part of their entry on the competition floor.

“This is an incredible initiative, and what an honor and privilege it is to be a judge for such a career defining opportunity! Revlon Professional’s Visionaries Re:Mastered 2025 is pure magic for emerging talents, providing them with unmatched mentorship, exposure, and access to the best in the industry. Helping to shape and guide the next generation of creative hairdressing talent is something I’m incredibly passionate about. Seeing fresh artists step forward, push boundaries, and elevate their craft is always inspiring. I can’t wait to witness the creativity and innovation these candidates bring to the table!” – Errol Douglas MBE.

“The Visionaries programme is a sure route to success for our final four. It takes its candidates on a journey like no other, opening up doors to incredible opportunities. It gets you to places, on to magazine pages, into studios, and on the invitation list to industry events. It will encourage you to expand on your creativity and get you out from behind your chair. The successes of our former Visionaries have been phenomenal – it’s a career gamechanger!” – Karen Thomas, Brand Master Educator for Revlon Professional® UK & Ireland.

The four Visionaries begin their journey on 7th April with a two-day module on ‘Becoming a Visionary’. Held at Revlon HQ – Greater London House, the course led by Karen Thomas will equip them with all the knowledge they need to launch them on their exciting year ahead.
